Hi misread it somewhere else, anyways I have a Sgs3 mini with an issue in my hands, with twrp and cm11 after using for weeks when restarted it had bootloops. Twrp failed to load, odin fails to write
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] scattoit:
Yes good... What about BT?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Da Xiang:
No call delay with today's release! This has been a PITA for a long time. Hope it is gone for good now.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Ikkuh84:
How about:

- does 2g still turn to 3g?

- does Netflix work?

- 1 ghz bug?

- wifi turns off sometimes for no reason?

- battery life?

Those are the mayor bugs I have with the latest stable releases. Are they still there?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Da Xiang:
1) Never use 2G

2) Have never used Netflix

3) Never had this bug

4) Never had this bug

5) Some ups and downs with battery life throughout the dailies but never had less than two days out of a full charge
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] as1162764:
does anyone get a 3 second freeze when turning off wifi ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Aronuser:
2 days, omg! it barely lasts one day for me

---------- Post added at 01:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

yes, but i think there isn't much to improve, since the network has to connect again etc.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] giociampa:
I have similar issues - but on certain apps only (for example: Smart Compass works, SatTrack doesn't)

Some that didn't work have had updates and now do - so I'd say it's a compatibily issue between the apps and KitKat, rather than with the ROM itself.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] -SyncSoft-:
I used BT yesterday to send a song to my brothers phone, no problems there. I just switched to ART, it was a bit buggy when it first booted but rebooting and leaving if for a few minutes, it fixed itself. Opening apps is a fraction quicker. But loading stuff and when your in the app you can see the difference if makes.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
I think the main reason why its so hard is that Ericsson doesn't exist anymore, so drivers for our SGS3 Mini is old and not maid for KitKat.

---------- Post added at 12:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

No ART is running very nice these days. I can only think of one reason not to use ART: Xposed.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] slon11:
Yes maybe ,but i remember when i use Motorola Defy and CM, it was the same ,every release fix and damage sth :D all the time
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
May I ask why you care about 2g? I simply can't imagine why anyone would disable 3g and force 2g.

Netflix would be nice, but I think movies and even tv shows deserve a bigger screen. Old Nexus7 is very cheap these days...

I never had the 1ghz bug.

My WiFi doesn't turn off, and is fast to disable/enable, no 2 sec. lag here.

Battery life is usage dependent. Idling seems fine, 0.3% an hours in flight mode.

Even BT is working but not 110% stable in my car, but fully usable.

I do get 1-2 seconds answer delay but I'm sort of used to it now so it doesn't bother me much.

Camcorder crash in Hangouts.

These are my personal experiences of course ymmv.

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 PM ----------

If you expect nightly builds to be stable like final, I think you got it wrong...

CM 10.1 is supposed to be stable, CM11 is working if you do not mind some bugs...

Heck even windows updates quite often fix one problem while creating a new.

There are so many variables involved that prediction all possible outcomes is impossible.

In short if you want to use cutting edge new technology be prepared for lots of trouble!

Novafusion opened the source so if you can do it better I think we all welcome you.

Random reboots when power cable is connected to charging.

Every night plug the cellphone intro energy and every morning the cellphone is poweroff with charging bar green.

In last 10 updates of this ROM this bug remain...
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Every night? Come on this release is less than 48 Hours old!

No this is def. not a rom bug, try factory reset and reinstall, without buggy apps like task killer and greenify.

If clean install doesn't help try to install stock before clean reinstall.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Carlyle_f:
As is WiFi direct, but hey, at least we have CM11 right?

And mine doesn't work either.

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Some of us may not have unlimited internet at home and as a result, spend a lot of money on data. Consumption of data on 3G is a lot higher than 2G, yes, 2G is a lot slower but speed isn't important if we're using BBM or Facebook.

On the another note, it uses less battery and data when the phone isn't being used as well.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Ikkuh84:

Yes maybe ,but i remember when i use Motorola Defy and CM, it was the same ,every release fix and damage sth :D all the time[/QUOTE]

Maybe you are right about 2g/3g. I always used 2g on my Desire, because it was less battery consuming. So I thought on this phone also, but battery life is good with 3g on. So no more 2g for me.

Every day I have to travel by train for an hour, and I always watch Netflix then. So hopefully it will be fixed.

Overall the rom is pretty fine. But I had also a black screen when charging. And when I turned off charging, I saw that he didn't charge at all.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Well if your phone/app send/receive 1mb data it will be 1mb regardless of 3g or 2g...

Of course its possible to design apps so they send less data when only on 2g but I have never heard of any such app.

Yes in the old days 3g consumed more power than 2g but 3g technology has evolved so pr. megabyte 3g should actually consume less energy on a modern phone.

Regarding WiFi direct all people I know, even my old grandparents, have a WiFi router. So WiFi direct not working is not an issue for me.

Do you people live in Africa?? :laugh:

BTW my compass seem to work in maps so maybe its really an app related issue?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Carlyle_f:
Theoretically, it should consume less energy, But it does not. Also, what does wifi direct have to do with your router? Or your grandparents for that matter? And my friend, what do you mean by "do you guys live in Africa"? That seems disrespectful, if this forum was about where we're from I could give you a million reasons why Africa is better than where you come from. But its not, and an ignorant guy will stay ignorant.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Panderawan:
Downloading.

You haven't been communicating recently. You promised more communication with your community since MaclawStudio became Novafusion. I think that people would be willing to donate more easily if they had answers to their questions (or if you spent more time on the forum answering our questions, like once or twice per week).

I'm not blaming, i'm totally satisfied with your rom. Just my point of view here.

Thank you once again for your fantastic job.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] New Macław:
Dude. Please.

I promise I read everything, as you see in changelogs. Something is being break, like camera in release 2 days ago, and it's being fixed. But I also have real life, school, work, and I cannot reply to every post, especially with bug reported 2 milion times before.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Panderawan:
As i said, i'm not blaming mate. I've been a supporter for a long time now.

A few posts here and there every once in a while prevents people from spamming their problem again and again. Official statements are important. You have a life, we all do. I'll be donating tomorrow, will be back home by then.

Don't feel offended. We're your community, and we all are here to help each other. All I said is that communicating with your community every now and then sounds like a good idea.

To get back to what you asked on novafusion.pl the other day, an official forum would be superb.

I'm a member of this wonderful community, i'm just trying to make it better.

Edit : can't wait for you to have some time for this twitch session you've been talking about for months :]
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Truly sorry if anyone feels offended.

Please relax. Sorry you feel so offended. Asking if you people live in africa was meant as a joke, and not meant for you personally. Note the smiley.

Where I live we have relative old style, some would say 3. world country, IT infrastructure so when reading about expensive data plans and need for WiFi direct it kind of surprised me. Maybe that shows I'm not a well educated person who knows how the rest of the world is...

With a wifi router I dont need wifi direct to transfer from my phone to another wifi device.

The statement about even my grandparents having a wifi router was to show how common Wifi is nowadays.

Sometimes I get the feeling some people complain not because the actually need a feature but because he/she likes to complain...

Reading all the weird bugs people report especially on novafusion.pl kind of makes me understand why Maclaw doesnt answer. Truth is some people doesn't know **** about computers or even how to google, and yet they install a custom and unofficial Rom like NovaFusions CM11 port. That is not very smart.

Maybe renaming this thread to something like BETA instead of Working would stop some of the newbies from expecting this to be a fully stable final rom?

I would also advocate that people encountering new bugs try a clean install before reporting, but I guess Maclaw does not follow my belief on this since all he writes on Novafusion.pl is quote: Do full backup before installation and wipe data/cache (factory reset) after installation (ONLY FROM STOCK ROM).

I'm sure this is part of the reason users flood Novafusion.pl with all kinds of dirty install related issues.

Also stating Issues=None and posting New STABLE release seems hmm inaccurate some might even say dishonest...

I realise this might seem like I have some kind of beef with MacLaw but I really don't, its just my honest opinion. When I get money I am going to donate because I really do appreciate all the nice work Novafusion does for my phone.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] shagadelic:
Jfi - A few of the following things i now post here for the 3rd time...

- reboot to recovery is not working.

? I also got a few info messages from link2sd...did i miss something or since when do we have it in our rom?

? There is a android/data dir structure on the extSdcard which imho should only be on the internal memory?

New - I cant access all files on my extSdcard from PC. Directorystructure is shown complete, but not the most files. The new (MTP)transfered files are shown and a few older ones. At the phone everything is ok with the card and all the files. Think this bug is since the extSdcard was named..mounted..whatever to sdcard1.

-Thanx for all the KitKat-
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] felgutico:
Of course, if the phone send 1mb data it will use the same battery usage, but when not sending anything battery consumtion is very lower on 2g. I just use data for Whatsapp, and i get much more battery life with 2G than with 3G.

[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
I haven't tested this myself but all the recent sources I can find suggest it really doesn't make a difference.

Try read this: http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/44628/2g-versus-3g-does-it-really-save-battery

And: http://www.speedguide.net/faq_in_q.php?qid=362

Maybe it also related to 3g/2g coverage in the area we live??

Even IF 2g consume a little less power I would not disable 3g because the hit on data transfer speeds is huge, and I'm a guy who normally cares more about saving power than gaining speed...

Maybe I will have to ask my cleaver brother on this.

But of course having a choice to disable 3g wouldn't harm anyone, personally I just don't think it should be high on Novafusion's to-do-list.

---------- Post added at 08:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

Honestly I have never had any problem booting to recovery, so I suggest you try to reinstall TWRP?

Also I never got any messages about link2sd but ExternalSD is messy in Kitkat because Google want to push everyone to cloud services, please blame google for this weird behavior. I have recently posted a link to anandtech.com where you can read more about this if you want.

mkflawless: I don't know if you intend this but to me it seems your nick is in some way trying to make fun with MacLaw?

[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Sure a Novafusion forum seem like a great idea but if team Novafusion doesn't have time to communicate I honestly can't see the point. If such forum is going to be moderated as much as Novafusion.pl currently is then its not something I want to contribute. Do XDA not cover all your needs?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Panderawan:
It absolutely does, that was not my point. I was just pointing out the lack of recent communication (which i can understand, we all have a life).
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] tickmaster:
I use 2g only because coverage is really bad where i work. Its switching from 2g to 3g every 30 seconds, do my battery would die in few hours.

Maybe it's time to end the development...

But if you want to ask about something related to development (do not write about that I haven't been here last days, it was just a week, everybody sometimes needs a break and your posts about that are just sad) I am here right now. And not moving anywhere.

Can we now move ;) I really sorry, is it ok right now?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Hey Maclaw I think you misunderstand my previous post. What I meant was that when you are already short on time why also use time on a new forum, please concentrate on the development, you seem very skilled at this, maybe handover support to someone else?

If you need more time for your real life, changing from daily to weekly releases would suit me fine.

I do know you in contrast to me have a life besides this and I'm please to hear you are not going anywhere. I just got my first credit card and when I get any money i'm going to donate more than I can share. Hope your week wasn't to bad.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] New Macław:
It was bad and nothing has changed (I hope yet)....

That's why today's comments hurts me so much, but who cares about that...

Anyway, let's move back to the topic.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] padlockedtight:
I wouldn't be overly concerned by certain users who expect the woks on a plate (For Free I Might Add!!) & who comment on things they don't know anything about. Keep up the Great work Dev;)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Panderawan:
As a member that cares about the Maclaw and Novafusion community, i just tried to give my opinion, and was never blaming you for having a life at all. As i stated, i've always been a supporter of your work, and always will.

We, as a community, are loyal and thankful for your amazing work.

To get back to today's release. I haven't had a clock freeze in 2 days (which sounds promising). I hope that this will last. Apart from that, still as fast as it could be, thanks to you guys.

No bad feelings :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
It seems like I was wrong regarding 3g using less battery compared to 2g.

So unless you are waiting for a transmission to complete while having the screen on, 2g seem to use less power.

If 3g signal is bad, 3g use a lot of power it seems. Around here where I live 3g is so bad I often see the edge symbol on my phone, and know that I know edge=2g, I would actually like to try the 2g only setting. Sorry for posting wrong info before.

So far release 20140415 seems very promising. I didn't receive any error messages on first boot, normally I have to reboot once after flashing to make the ROM run smooth but this time it wasn't required. Very Nice!

mkflawless: English isn't my native language but to me you nick seems like a way to make fun of MacLaw, I don't know if you intend this?

---------- Post added at 12:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 AM ----------

May I ask what you changed to stop the clock freeze?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Panderawan:
I haven't changed anything actually. I installed latest release, removed cLock (it froze even without it, so i just removed it), and disabled automatic time zone. Now i may have just been lucky, so I will let you know tomorrow :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
I just googled and this problem is really old going back to CM10 and not only on s3 mini, someone sugested its related to 12 hour format, but I always use 24H format, so maybe thats why I can't reproduce this bug? This almost seem to simple to be true. Anyone using 24H format experiencing this time freeze bug?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] New Macław:
I've checked some submitted logs and I'm worried that clock issues are related to networks.

If I will confirm it, i will need SIM card from one of the problematic vendors.

More info soon.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Can't you just use a WiFi hotspot app?

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

I don't suffer from clock freeze, only happened once a long time ago when I first flashed from stock to Novafusion and did factory reset, so this probably was on 12H format. But I'm glad you are looking at the problem because I know it will please a lot of affected users.

Im no expert but lots of users have reported the clock freeze to also happen in flight-mode, where network is disabled. It sure is a weird bug!
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] DustArma:
If Wi-Fi direct doesn't work then it shouldn't be labeled as a feature, same as "No 1GHz bug" when a lot of users have reported it even with completely clean installs.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
I guess wifi direct is kind of false advertising but when the product is free it can't really upset me. Maybe Maclaw just forgot to remove this feature? He's only a human.

When Novafusion release a new build and the 1Ghz bug doesn't happen on maclaws phone how should he know its there before the release hits the wild?

I don't suffer 1Ghz bug and with all the lamers complaining im assuming a lot of them don't even know how to make a proper clean install, I don't know if maclaw also assume this, but I wouldn't blame him if he did. With serious problems sometimes a factory install is needed before a clean Novafusion install, have you tried this without syncing/restoring old apps and settings?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] DustArma:
Dude, I've made a completely clean install, flashed, wiped data/cache, even tried using the odin file instead of flashing the zip through recovery and I get the 1GHz bug, along with severe battery issues.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Allan_Hun:
Ok thats weird. So factory stock install works ok? Then I guess you have also tried to change cpu governor from default and back to default? Did you disable googles auto app restore before wipe? How old is your battery?
